I just bought his new cookbook = "Biker Billy Cooks With Fire" from Amazon and it's awesome. He says in = the intro that every receipe except two has hot peppers as an = ingredient. The two exceptions are "one designed to assuage your taste = buds if you misjudge your hot-pepper prowess and the other is a simple = sauce to put on already fiery foods" He looks like a real hoot; wish I = got his program here! The following recipe sounds great. I can see, = however, that many of my fire-eating list friends will double or triple = the number of peppers called for: Ballistic Bananas 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter; 1 Fresh Hab, stemmed, seeded and halved; = 4 ripe bananas peeled and halved lengthwise. In a large saute pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the hab and = saute for 1 minute. Add the bananas and saute for 2-4 minutes or until = they begin to brown. Turn the bananas over and saute the other side. = While the bananas are cooking, move the hab pieces around them; this = will help make them all equally ballistic. Discard the hab (this is obviously optional ;-)) and serve the bananas = with whipped cream or ice cream as a counterpoint to the fire in the = fruit. Makes 4 servings. Enjoy!
